Warranty information

Important to note:

• This product is designed for indoor use only.

Construction sites

Continuously switching off the mains power

supply that is connected to emergency light

fittings during the construction phase of an

installation will cause these fittings to discharge

and charge their batteries many times over a

short period; this can shorten life of the battery.

ABB does not recommend such practices and

may not honour the warranty on batteries when

they are subjected to such harsh operating

conditions. Emergency light fittings are designed

to be discharge tested once every 6 months as

per AS/NZS 2293.2, subjecting the product to

repeated discharge or charge cycles is regarded

as an abuse of the fittings.

Troubleshooting guide

If you have installed and connected the fitting as per the instructions listed earlier and it does

not function correctly, use the following table as a guide to fixing the problem. Look up the

type of fault in the left column and check the possible causes from the right column.

If the fitting still does not work after checking these possible causes, contact ABB customer

service in Australia on 1800 60 20 20.

Testing precautions

Once the fitting is permanently connected to the

mains supply, a commissioning discharge test as

required in AS/NZS 2293.2 must be carried out.

You will need to allow 24 hours for the battery to

fully charge prior to conducting this test,

presently (at the time of writing), the standard

requires that fittings operate in emergency mode

for a period not less than 2 hours for their

commissioning test and for not less than 90

minutes thereafter (it is required that 6 monthly

discharge tests be carried out). You will need to

keep the records for the commissioning test and

enter them into the building emergency services

logbook or via other recording methods as

allowed by AS/NZS 2293.2.

the applicable standards for data and mains

cabling installation procedures and

requirements.

Nexus LX (data cable system)

The Nexus range of emergency light fittings are

designed to be connected together into a special

communication network over a level 4 (or higher)

high speed, single twisted pair data cable. The

Nexus user and technical guide describes all you

need to know to successfully install a Nexus project.

Ask for it from your superviser, from your employer

or from your nearest ABB product supplier. The

network cabling of the building must be installed

as per the procedure detailed in the Nexus user and

technical guide. No mains or mains carrying cables

are to be connected to the data terminals or cables.

Nexus RF (wireless system)

The Nexus RF range of light fittings are designed to

communicate via a proprietary RF network, however

the electrical installation of the fittings is identical

to that of a standard non-monitored fitting.

Installation instructions

Note: The circuit supplying mains power to the fitting must not be energised until installation of

the fitting is completed.

1. The base of the fitting is installed first on the ceiling (refer figure 1a), the mounting and cable entry

hole dimensions shown in figure 1b can be used as a template, for the purpose of marking/drilling.

The data cable only connects for the Nexus fitting (part number PLSNXSLED/PLSNXSLEDP). Once the

base is installed on the ceiling, connect the incoming unswitched active, neutral and earth to terminal

marked USA, N and E respectively. Connect the Nexus data cable (only for Nexus fitting).

Removal instructions

1. To remove/uninstall fitting from the ceiling,

the steps to be followed are the reversal of

installation process. Turn off mains power to

fitting, the fitting will automatically switch

onto emergency mode as the mains power

has been turned off. It will stay on in the

emergency mode until such time as the

battery cut-off threshold is reached.

2. Remove cover by undoing the 2 cover screws

turning anti-clockwise one by one using

suitable screwdriver, make sure to hold cover

with one hand while undoing the last screw.

Once the screws are undone, remove the cover

gently. The next step is to remove the diffuser

assembly.

3. To remove diffuser assembly, hold the diffuser

holding latch with thumb and fingers on one

end and push gently to the opposite end to

remove diffuser from the holding latch. Once

diffuser is removed from the latch, disconnect/

remove wire loom plug from the mother board.

Once the diffuser assembly is removed,

disconnect the battery pack plug on the

mother board. The next step is to remove base

of the installed fitting.

4. Undo the mains wire connections ie:

unswitched active, neutral and earth cable (and

data cable connection where applies) from the

terminal block using a suitably sized

screwdriver. Unscrew the mounting screws

turning anti-clockwise one by one using

suitable screwdriver, and make sure to hold

base with one hand while undoing the last

screw. Once the mounting screws are undone,

the base can be pulled down gently from the

ceiling.

5. When the fitting is reconnected to the mains

supply, it will need time to recharge its battery

before it will be capable of a full length

discharge again. The ability of the fitting to

operate on emergency is determined by the

age, charge level, operating temperature

conditions and environmental circumstances

of the battery in the fitting.

2. Once the base is secured to the ceiling, hold the diffuser assembly in your hand and connect the

diffuser wire loom polarised plug to the mother board (refer figure 2), the white wires on the plug

should be towards the centre of the fitting. Once the plug is connected, lay the wire loom carefully

inside the base. Place one end of the diffuser in the diffuser holding latch hole (refer figure 2) and

then push up the other side of the diffuser, the diffuser clicks and locks in place. Once the diffuser is

locked in place, the cover is easily fixed to the base via 2 screws. Hold the cover in your hand and bring

up to the base, pass diffuser through the cut out; make sure the side rectangular cut out on the cover

for the LED and test switch lines up with LED and test switch on the base. Once the holes on both

sides of the base and cover line up, secure with the screws provided.

3. Install the pictograph inserts by sliding into the diffuser. The pictograph inserts can be installed in

the diffuser prior to installing the diffuser assembly in the fitting. Fitting is supplied standard with all

pictograph insert options for single and double sided, as a complete one box solution to meet any

site/project needs.

4. The circuit supplying mains power to the fitting can now be energised. Once powered up, in a single

point unit the red LED lamp should energise and remain lit on mains, until the power supply fails. For

Nexus product; the normal initial uncommissioned status of the indicating LED on the fitting is

flashing green. Once commissioned, the LED changes to a steady red and flashes red during a test

after receiving a command from the Nexus system. Please refer to the Nexus user and technical guide

for a full detailed description of all possible LED states and their meanings. The emergency function

of the fitting should only operate when the normal lighting power supply fails or when somebody

presses the manual test button located on the fitting or when commissioned on the Nexus network

and the fitting receives a command from the Nexus controller to switch into emergency mode.

5. Check the operation of the fitting to ensure that the installation was successful. When powered up,

allow a few minutes to give the battery a small charge, then press the manual test button located on

the fitting. Hold the test button in for a few seconds and observe the operation of the lamp switching

from mains to the emergency mode. If the lamp on emergency mode works momentarily, that’s okay.

Try again in a few more minutes because if the battery was completely discharged, it may take a little

time to charge up enough to operate even momentarily. After this time, press the test button again

and if the lamp does not work at all, check the supply, the connections and the troubleshooting guide

at the end of this document.

6. Once manually checked as per item 4 above, the Nexus fitting is ready to be communication tested

and commissioned into the Nexus network and registered in the database. Keep the information

details of this fitting including exact location description, DB (distribution board) and CB (circuit

breaker) numbering, channel and router numbering, plan number and cross referencing

information as all this will be required for entry into the database during commissioning. Refer to

the Nexus user and technical guide for full details. As the installer, it is your responsibility to

conduct the initial discharge testing of the installed fitting. Refer to AS/NZS 2293.

Important: 24 hours is required to allow the fitting battery to reach full capacity, ie: prior to a

discharge test. As the installer, it is your responsibility to conduct the initial discharge testing of

the installed fitting. Refer to AS/NZS 2293.
